About this listen
From the author of the international mega-best-seller The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck comes a counterintuitive guide to the problems of hope.
We live in an interesting time. Materially, everything is the best it’s ever been - we are freer, healthier, and wealthier than any people in human history. Yet, somehow everything seems to be irreparably and horribly f*cked - the planet is warming, governments are failing, economies are collapsing, and everyone is perpetually offended on Twitter. At this moment in history, when we have access to technology, education, and communication our ancestors couldn’t even dream of, so many of us come back to an overriding feeling of hopelessness.
What’s going on? If anyone can put a name to our current malaise and help fix it, it’s Mark Manson. In 2016, Manson published The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck, a book that brilliantly gave shape to the ever-present, low-level hum of anxiety that permeates modern living. He showed us that technology had made it too easy to care about the wrong things, that our culture had convinced us that the world owed us something when it didn’t - and worst of all, that our modern and maddening urge to always find happiness only served to make us unhappier. Instead, the “subtle art” of that title turned out to be a bold challenge: to choose your struggle; to narrow and focus and find the pain you want to sustain. The result was a book that became an international phenomenon, selling millions of copies worldwide while becoming the number-one best seller in 13 different countries.
Now, in Everthing Is F*cked, Manson turns his gaze from the inevitable flaws within each individual self to the endless calamities taking place in the world around us. Drawing from the pool of psychological research on these topics, as well as the timeless wisdom of philosophers such as Plato, Nietzsche, and Tom Waits, he dissects religion and politics and the uncomfortable ways they have come to resemble one another. He looks at our relationships with money, entertainment, and the internet, and how too much of a good thing can psychologically eat us alive. He openly defies our definitions of faith, happiness, freedom - and even of hope itself.
With his usual mix of erudition and where-the-f*ck-did-that-come-from humor, Manson takes us by the collar and challenges us to be more honest with ourselves and connected with the world in ways we probably haven’t considered before. It’s another counterintuitive romp through the pain in our hearts and the stress of our soul. One of the great modern writers has produced another book that will set the agenda for years to come.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Good but not as good as subtle guide
it was a really good listen, makes lots of sense, obviously a clever thinker, but subtle guide was way ahead in terms of entertainment.

Hugely Insightful and brutally honest
An antidote to much of the crud of the self-help genre, this book should be played over loudspeakers in high streets up and down the land. Manson’s insights into the psychological and philosophical condition of the human race, and how we should deal with it individually and as a society, are at times startling, sometimes amusing, but always powerful.
An important book, well narrated with feeling by the author himself, with messages that will stay with me for a long time. Hugely recommended.

Good, insightful, but less so than The Subtle Art
If you have read The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, then the style and flow of this will be familiar. The first couple of chapters were right back to the same insightful brilliance that has made me think that The Subtle Art was a true masterpiece. However, the brilliance does begin to fade and be replaced with more of a personal agenda. We all see reality from our own perspective, we don't have any other choice, but for me this book is more about Mark and his personal value set. At times I feel he even goes off on tangents that are really passages to himself, justifying his personal take on life. I am not saying it isn't worth a read, it certainly is, but like a lot of sequels it doesn't quite live up to the brilliance of the original.

Awww Mark
I truly love Mark Manson’s works and this book is no exception, but, while I completely understand an author wanting to read their own book, the performance is flat and lacking, and it drags down the overall experience.

Life Changing.
An essential read/listen on human psychology and the depth of how our feelings actually control everything. Don't hope, don't despair either, just learn.
